257 | Ayurveda Encompassed

A map is a representation. It's a tool that can be static or fixed- like a piece of paper that you hold in your hand; but it can also be dynamic and changing- like your phone's GPS. The ancient texts of Ayurveda are written records. That part is fixed. But how we use them has always been dynamic and changing. Ayurveda Encompassed is a navigation system that combines specific maps and tools to support you in accessing new depths of your innate wisdom so that you learn to flourish in the seas of this new paradigm we're all sailing in.
